3 Installation
Compare model number and type with that specified on hy-
draulic schematic. The valve can be mounted in any position,
fixed or movable.
Mounting
surface:
(< 0.01 mm (0.00004 in) over 100 mm (3.94 in)) and finish
(R
< 0.8 µm). Care must be taken to ensure that contamina-
a
tion does not enter the hydraulic system, all work areas must
be clean of surface or air-borne contamination.
Mounting: Socket head screws (grade 10.9) according to
EN ISO 4762, torque from inside to outside diagonally alternat-
ing.

4 Pilot Mode and Maximum Pressures
Pilot mode: Pay attention to the hydraulic connection scheme
and to the mounting pattern of the hydraulic manifold. Pay at-
tention to the hydraulic schematic on the valve nameplate and
to the type designation defining the pilot mode.

5 Electrical Connection
Electrical safety: The protective conductor connection is con-
nected to the electronics housing or valve body. The insulation
materials employed are designed for use in the safety extra-
low voltage range.
To comply with safety regulations requires isolation from the
mains according to EN 61558-1 and EN 61558-2-6 and limiting
all voltages according to EN 60204-1. We recommend using
SELV/PELV power supplies.
Rated signal: See nameplate.
External fuse per valve: 1.0 A time lag
Valve phasing: A positive signal (4–10) causes valve opening
PA.
Connector wiring: See wiring schematic in AM 474E.
Connection: Signal lines shielded, shielding connected at
both ends and additionally connected to reference potential
(0 V) at the control side (to improve EMC). Connect the protec-
tive conductor.
Observe technical note TN 353.
6 Hydraulic System Start Up
Pay attention to the pressure setting, the venting instructions,
the fail-safe functions and the alarm messages!
7 Null Adjustment
WARNING
Unsafe state of the machine due to wrong posi-
tion of the valve's spool.
A wrong position of the valve's spool may result in
undefined sequences of motion.
The null position must not be altered.
Remove the locking screw with sealing ring from the cover of
the electronics housing to access the null adjustment potenti-
ometer. Turning the potentiometer shaft results in a spool posi-
tion change. Turning clockwise will increase valve opening
PA. The output signal for actual spool position will also
change. After adjustment refit the sealing ring and the locking
screw.

8 Service
Replacing O rings: The mounting surface O rings may be re-
placed by the customer (on the pilot valves and the way valves
as well). Pay attention to cleanliness of the valve and of the
surroundings.
Transportation: Before transporting a valve the valve ports
have to be sealed with a clean shipping plate or adhesive tape.
Package the valve carefully to prevent damage during trans-
portation.
Repairs: Repairs may only be carried out by us or by our au-
thorized service centers.
9 Disposal
It is essential to comply with the relevant national waste dis-
posal regulations and environmental protection provisions

when disposing of valves, spare parts or accessories, packag-
ing that is no longer needed, hydraulic fluid or auxiliary materi-
als and substances used for cleaning!
